HINESBURG-The North Country girls basketball team ran into the buzz saw that is the CVU Redhawks on Tuesday night and fell by the score of 73-20.
"When you go into these games you have to have perspective," said NCU coach Christiane Brown. "We wanted to work on some things, and we had our moments, but we also broke down and that led to points."
Unfortunately for the Falcons it was a lot of points, as CVU was ahead 45-13 after the first half, and would allow just seven more points to NCU the rest of the way.
Kelsea Cutting had 6 points for the Falcons and Hollie Smith added 4.
2-4 North Country will now regroup and get ready for Friday's home match with BFA. Tip is at 6:30.
